A show commissioned by the Barbican Centre in London to accompany the exhibition in the art gallery of Game On, exploring the history of computer games. I was invited to curate an evening of music to reflect on these themes within electronic music. Acts that performed on the night were Plaid, Coil, Mouse on Mars and SND. The original footage was recorded on aMiniDV camcorder, so the quality is rather lacking by contemporary standards, was hand-held for the duration of the show, and stored on two separate tapes, hence a little gap some way into the performance. Having said that, there's little other footage of this performance and feel it's of value historically. And believe me, the challenge of simply importing this footage is just too complex to share here!
